Howdy Rick!

How the heck did this pair chisel out an owl on that bark!

You got THREE birds with one click!


As this is a FANTASTIC shot I did a small workshop on it...
Hope you ( & Lucy ) like!

So long pa'dner!

Hello Teresa,

Allow me to offer some feedback on this shot.

I think it would be nice to focus more on the animals / deer and try to minimize any "man-made" stuff in the photo.
The "antennas" at the right, as well as the road pavement are "features" I would remove...

I have done a workshop to show you what I mean. Let me knbow what you think!

Dobri Denj,

Welcome to TrekN.

I believe this weed has been exported to Canada...
and is known as Centaurus

What a great shot for the last day of April.

The pose, the eye-contact, the colour and the sharpness are all spot-on!

Well captured and well presented! Cudos Bob!

I am sitting here with a warthog ( a beer ) and since it is almost all finished ( abt 1/3 left ) I thought I would add my two cents worth here...

I like this shot with one exception... Just like with my beer I don't like small leftovers... In this case the chopped off piglet. Might I suggest that the photo can be presented without the hindquarter... ;)

Otherwise I feel it is a great action shot.
See workshop for an idea on alternative.

Fantastic moment to capture.

Technically I find the blurr in the foreground not desirable, nor is it necessary < try an 8x10 ratio >

The colours - though pleasing - are a wee dark...

I took the liberty to show an alternative in a WS.

Just the same I am really keen on YOUR shot! Well done!

Ciao Livio,

What a cool shot! It reminds me of the night I climbed a mountain in full moon light, in order to see the < pink > sunrise the next morning.
Yes it was in the Swiss part of these Alps.

I like this shot a lot and recommend you try to set it up as Panorama Post. Good note too! Appreciated.

Well done, & tfs.

I swear I saw this "fella" at the last Stampede in Calgary,
except for all that war-paint he is wearing in this shot!

I also saw an imitator sucking on a straw and looking like a wanna-be Alberta cowboy...

Thanx for bringing those memories back to live with this hilarious shot!

Yes, indeed pa'dner , laughter is THE best medicine! Too often folks forget THAT truth! ...

Meanwhile: I surely like the haircut on this chappy! Very sharp and totally in focus! My dentist will be disappointed though! Doesn't look like cousin Z... has flossed for a while!


Great shot, it made ME laugh! Flamin' thanx, from the city of the Flames!

;j.

Fire & Ice? Fryer & Fries!

So many things race thru a Cockney mind!
And in the end it comes down to how you fried them fries.

The arctic wolf is by and large still on a "clean" diet, shown here
in this quiet portrait. The wolf appears to be "at peace", but fully alert. Nice moment to capture in a portrait of this oft maligned creature.

Well presented and thanx "Wolf-pow-pow-er".

This is a gorgeous shot of the "Stilt" you have there!
Is it by chance the "Black-winged Stilt" [Himantopus himantopus ] ???

""They have long pink legs, a long thin black bill and are mainly white with a dark cap and a dark back.""

I gather this bird is in the avocet - stilt family... ;)

I would only do a small crop on top and at bottom to focus more on the bird... Maybe I will get around to that too ;)

TFS Kevin! Great shot! And I am glad your daughter is learning!
